Chapter 1

Edward Manuel Torres, born Eduardo Manuel Torres, knows what it means to feel pain. Not the simple pain you feel when you get a paper cut or scrap your knee. No, the pain he feels is the kind that rips the soul and leaves scars where no one can see them. The kind that forces you to grow up and face the reality that is life.

After watching the boy you love die, right before your eyes, you lose faith in life and love. You make a wall to protect yourself, even when you know you shouldn't. Even when you know you're hurting someone who may love you more than you thought was possible.

So... when you've lost everything that's important, what's left?

Only Hope
